Do you fall back to the original in that case?
I am no lawyer, but have watched some court TV lol. It seems that a "loophole" or a "technicality" gets some criminals out of jail, or keeps them from going to jail.
These technicalities often void, and trump all other evidence pointing to the the guilt or innocence of defendants.
So, maybe if the contract is voided, Chavis doesn't pay a dime back.

It won't be voided.
And a loophole in criminal law is a lot more valuable than a non-material alteration in civil law.
AS to who "wins" that simply depends on the perspective of the litigant. Sometimes a suit is just to make a statement, and even a marginal win, or loss, was worth it.
Also don't know if the contract says anything about fees. If one or the other party doesn't have to worry about paying the oppositions fees, it changes the complexion of the litigation.
